Ally Schlegel: Navigating New Experiences Everybody Pulls The Tarp

    • Careers

This week Andrew talks with Ally Schlegel. In January, Ally was drafted 23rd overall by the Chicago Red Stars in the 2023 National Women’s Soccer League Draft. Ally is a leader on and off the field. At Penn State, she was a 2x All-American, a 2x team captain, and chaired the university’s Student Athlete Advisory Board. It’s been a whirlwind few months for Ally as she transitions from life as a college athlete to the start of her pro soccer career. Andrew and Ally explored her past few months and what she’s doing to prepare for success at the next level. This conversation is all about navigating new experiences, pushing your limits, and building upon successful habits to achieve even more. It’s filled with lessons for everyone—no matter where you are in your journey.
